      Don't quote her wrong, not wanting to be a barbie and having surgery are two entire different topics. Also you don't need surgery in order to become a wo/man, you are what you are, and those operations just make you look like what always has been there. Even without operations, she still would be a woman.

      @@user-vc5yh4vn1p That's the point of distinguishing between "gender" - which describes identity, and "sex" - which describes the physical features. "Phyiscal gender" is not the correct terminology - gender is not physical, sex is. She didn't "change her physical gender", she adjusted her body to finally fit her gender.

    This grandma is very open-minded. Of course, she still has some misconceptions, for example, a trans woman doesn't owe to be conventionally pretty or "to pass as a cis woman" to be valid. But I know that she doesn't mean any of this in a negative way, she just genuinely tries and does her best to overcome her own prejudices with an open heart and it makes me truly happy!! 🥰

    It’s crazy that it took her longer to be exempted from military service than to actually attend and do it. Being trans is hard everywhere but I’ve never heard the point of view of a Korean trans person so this part was very interesting to hear. Also, trans women who look masculine are just as valid but Pungja is crazy pretty

I think you might be right but at the same time I feel like it could be more difficult for them to get accepted. Mostly because the military system has never been opened to the LGBTQ community and I'm not sure about how a trans man would be welcomed or treated. - Note that for me this consideration is not based on the Korean military system but on every single military system, from whatever country or part of the world. -

    I bet Grandma OK never imagined herself living outside her comfort zone in her sunset years! She truly has a warm, loving soul.
    Also, the transgender lady (I cannot remember her name) is such a lovely person too. Sorry you had to endure so much at the hands of others, but jm glad you were wise enough to turn that cruelty in to wisdom and a tougher skin.
    I hope you have a truly wonderful life.

      Unfortunately you should have to. Some examples of why; a man called Zuby in UK wanted to prove the issue with self-ID so claimed he was female to enter the UK female weight-lifting championships. He won. All those females who worked har ddidnt stand a chance. He didnt genuinely ID as female but wanted to prove the point. Another example, there was a man claiming to be female who had been put into a womens only prison. He also happened to be a multiple times sex-offender. He ended up raping one of the female inmates. Socially there is no issue with peoppe IDing as the other sex but to keep certain spaces female only we have to know who is actually female. If someone has transitioned then they usually are someone with gender dysphoria and arent someone trying to say use an excuse to get out of military service. If we allow self-ID anyone can attempt to get out of military and then when they're past the age of doing service, somewhere in their 30s, they could revert back to being male. It's too much of a sneaky loophole for people to avoid military. There was one Korean rapper who pulled all his teeth out simply to avoid military. I forget his name but you can find it on a google search.

    I’m soo happy for Pungja she has found happiness through years of struggle and the ability to find that can be so hard finding that acceptance and finding that love is such a struggle sometimes. I’m so glad she has a loving supportive boyfriend and that her family has become more accepting and that her bf family is supportive.

    I don't know why I got goosebumps when she told me about how happy she is in her relationship, and how well she is treated by her boyfriend's family. I'm so glad that she found people wo genuinely care about her, and love her for who she is.
    Also, it must be terrifying to have to go through that military process... A few pieces of paper to describe who you are, and a long, long wait? What if they deem you 'not a woman' at the end of that? Imagine the pain that would cause to the lady in question. I can understand why such a thing is needed in a country where every guy's supposed to serve their country, I imagine that there's people who would try to get out of it using fake excuses... but as someone who is genuinely going through this life changing procedure it sounds horrible... having people question you like that... I'm just glad it ended well for her.
    If you're someone going through this right now... hang in there, show them who you truly are. This weirdo from the Netherlands is supporting you in spirit.

    I’m so incredibly happy with Grandma Ok’s reaction and how accepting she was. She is the an amazing example to counter ignorant and bigoted elders who use generational differences to validate their hate against trans people.
    I do wonder though: would the reaction and the questions been different had a trans woman who was “tall and muscular” had come in instead. What about if a trans man walked in?

I’ll stay subscribed in case she ever does something in English, I’ll be happy to catch up on her journey 💖

Grandma is very right, Pungja nim is such a beautiful and lovely woman. having an older sister like her would be such a blessing. I wish the best for her and Grandma. these 2 were the loveliest!

    I'm happy that Pungja is able to live the life she dreamed of. I'm glad she does have love and support of those she's close to. She's obviously went through a lot of painful things to get where she is today and i love how Grandma OK is just a concerned grandmother who is worried about Pungja's wellbeing and looking out for her best interests.
    Beautiful.

    I actually love how they also keep grandma's initial prejudice, like expecting her to be tall and muscular or when she asked the gay couple of they have feminine roles. It shows how much we can learn once we communicate and understand, if we listen with an open mind.

    • @tookitogo

Big hugs to the both of you for doing these eye opening videos and hugs to the woman who came for the interview. She owes nothing to noone, she is just living her life. Please keep up more videos like this and help break that wall of prejudice against others. In this day and age you would think we would be more understanding towards others but it seems we're just not there yet.
